  16. Transferring Credit You will need to discuss with your academic adviser how transfer credit is applied to your degree program Be sure that Iowa State receives an official copy of your most updated transcript (with grades) Final transcripts can be sent to 100 Enrollment Services Center, Ames, IA 50011

  17. Validation of Enrollment Students must attend one of the first two class sessions to validate enrollment If not, the professor may give the seat to another student If this happens, you must initiate a course drop. It will not automatically be done for you Contact your academic adviser if you are unable to attend a class by the second class session

  18. Adding and Dropping Courses At some point, you may get into a course and realize it’s not a good fit or you’ll no longer be able to stay in the class. This is when you will talk to your adviser about dropping the course. Drop Limit for transfer students: 4 drops after your first semester. Schedule changes can be made in AccessPlus until the Friday of the first week of classes without counting toward your drop limit Adviser and instructor signatures are required after the first week and count toward your official drop limit

  19. Canceling Your Registration If you decide not to attend Iowa State and it is before classes begin, you must contact the Registrar’s Office to cancel your registration You must cancel your registration no later than the Friday before classes begin at 5:00 p.m. to avoid tuition assessment

  20. Academic Integrity Academic integrity might best be defined, quite simply, as doing one's own academic work without unauthorized assistance from other persons or resources. More specifically, academic integrity means that students take their coursework seriously and place significant value on learning and engagement in the classroom and while completing assignments and projects. Engaging in dishonest work may result in consequences from Iowa State such as a reduced or failing grade on the particular assignment or test, a reduced or failing grade in the course, and a range of sanctions from the Office of Judicial Affairs. More Information about Academic Integrity Policies.

  21. GPA & Academic Assistance In a given semester, your academic performance is measured by your Grade Point Average (GPA). Over a 2.0 means you’re in good standing with the University. Under a 2.0 and you will be placed on Academic Warning, Academic Probation or you may be Academically Dismissed. Find more information here and utilize your academic adviser as a resource.
